Dear makers of video games...

Please spare just a few dollars of your million-dollar budgets to give your characters some CLOTHES! I know we make seventy cents to your dollar, but really, this "girls in our games can't afford clothing" thing is taking it a little too far.

(this snark brought to you by the sneak previews of bard's tale and sudeki. I really should just stop reading xbox magazine...especially before breakfast.)

You know, at one point they (the X-box guys) asked one of the women's groups here for feedback on the characters they had created for one of their games. I suggested that if they were going to make the female characters all cute & slender & half naked young things, they should provide some XY eyecandy too, instead of shaggy nerdy boarder boys.

And no, they didn't listen. :-/

I'm currently addicted to Final Fantasy X, which has some semi-nekkid male characters.
